8 March 2009

I put some early carrots in last weekend and finished the last raised bed. Yesterday my youngest daughter helped me plant the first 18 early potatoes (Rocket) under glass. This worked really successfully last year so I am going for twice as many this year.
I have cleared quite a few areas ready for planting and the conservatory at home is filling up with seedlings - 3 varieties of tomato, sweet peppers, cayenne peppers, asters, basil, parsley etc. My new (second hand!) greenhouse at home is also filling up, I have one side of the path full of Little Gem Lettuce and my staging has some peas and some sweet peas. Roll on warmer weather though.
